Client Focus

Adolescents, Adults, and Seniors

I have a unique and creative way of utilizing different therapeutic tools to match my client’s needs and individual issues. My focus is to create a trusting and safe environment to enable my clients to explore their deepest feelings and thoughts. I rely on an empathetic and motivational approach, as well as on the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. As a Certified EMDR Therapist, I work with adults and older adolescents, to resolve past traumas and issues that keep them from moving forward in their lives and accomplishing their future desires and goals.

Most people looking for a therapist are in crisis, which is a challenging time to make such an important decision. I’m dedicated to providing my clients with a safe & supportive environment, where they are able to overcome their struggles with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, loss, lack of motivation or low self-esteem.
